We introduce the notion of operator-valued infinitesimal (OVI) independence for the Boolean and monotone cases. Then show that OVI Boolean (resp. monotone) independence is equivalent to the operator-valued Boolean (resp. monotone)…
We investigate a Belinschi-Nica type semigroup for free and Boolean max-convolutions. We prove that this semigroup at time one connects limit theorems for freely and Boolean max-infinitely divisible distributions. Moreover, we also…
In this paper free harmonic analysis tools are used to study parabolic iteration in the complex upper half-plane. The main result here is a complete characterization for the norming constants in the monotonic central limit theorem. This…
This paper considers the question of the rate of convergence to ${\alpha}$- stable laws, using arguments based on the Zolotarev distance to prove bounds. We provide a rate of convergence to ${\alpha}$-stable random variable where 1 <…
Suppose that $Z$ is a random closed subset of the hyperbolic plane $\H^2$, whose law is invariant under isometries of $\H^2$. We prove that if the probability that $Z$ contains a fixed ball of radius 1 is larger than some universal constant…
We study delay-independent stability in nonlinear models with a distributed delay which have a positive equilibrium. Such models frequently occur in population dynamics and other applications. In particular, we construct a relevant…
In a previous paper (called "Rectangular random matrices. Related covolution"), we defined, for $\lambda \in [0,1]$, the rectangular free convolution with ratio $\lambda$. Here, we investigate the related notion of infinite divisiblity,…
Let $\alpha : X \to Y$ be a general degree $r$ primitive map of nonsingular, irreducible, projective curves over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero or larger than $r$. We prove that the Tschirnhausen bundle of $\alpha$ is…
We show that positive stable densities are bell-shaped, that is their n-th derivatives vanish exactly n times on (0,+oo) and have an alternating sign sequence. This confirms the graphic predictions of Holt and Crow (1973) in the positive…
We show that all negative powers B_{a,b}^-{s} of the Beta distribution are infinitely divisible. The case b<1 follows by complete monotonicity, the case b > 1, s > 1 by hyperbolically complete monotonicity and the case b > 1, s < 1 by a…
A probability distribution over the Boolean cube is monotone if flipping the value of a coordinate from zero to one can only increase the probability of an element. Given samples of an unknown monotone distribution over the Boolean cube, we…
We discuss the stability theory and numerical analysis of the Helmholtz equation with variable and possibly non-smooth or oscillatory coefficients. Using the unique continuation principle and the Fredholm alternative, we first give an…
The goal of this paper is to investigate the stability of the Helmholtz equation in the high- frequency regime with non-smooth and rapidly oscillating coefficients on bounded domains. Existence and uniqueness of the problem can be proved…
The theory of linear dispersive equations predicts that waves should spread out and disperse over time. However, it is a remarkable phenomenon, observed both in theory and practice, that once nonlinear effects are taken into account,…
We obtain a strong renewal theorem with infinite mean beyond regular variation, when the underlying distribution belongs to the domain of geometric partial attraction a semistable law with index $\alpha\in (1/2,1]$. In the process we obtain…
L.Bondesson [1] conjectured that the density of a positive $\alpha$-stable distribution is hyperbolically completely monotone (HCM in short) if and only if $\alpha$ $\le$ 1/2. This was proved recently by P. Bosch and Th. Simon, who also…
Let ${\bf L}$ be the unit exponential random variable and ${\bf Z}_\alpha$ the standard positive $\alpha$-stable random variable. We prove that $\{(1-\alpha) \alpha^{\gamma_\alpha} {\bf Z}_\alpha^{-\gamma_\alpha}, 0< \alpha <1\}$ is…
This paper is concerned with a scalar nonlinear convolution equation which appears naturally in the theory of traveling waves for monostable evolution models. First, we prove that each bounded positive solution of the convolution equation…
We derive the precise stability criterion for smooth solitary waves in the b-family of Camassa-Holm equations. The smooth solitary waves exist on the constant background. In the integrable cases b = 2 and b = 3, we show analytically that…
In this note, we consider the construction of a one-dimensional stable Langevin type process confined in the upper half-plane and submitted to reflective-diffusive boundary conditions whenever the particle position hits 0. We show that two…
